The FA-0016&G Full Armor Over.on (フルアーマーオーヴェロン?), also referred to as the Ampersand Gundam (アンパサダガンダム?), is a mobile suit from Mobile Suit Gundam Walpurgis.
Technology & Combat Characteristics[]
Conceived towards the end of U.C. 0087, this machine was a variant of the Over.on, which was described as Scirocco's vision of a Gundam, that aimed to increase its firepower and armor. The Over.on had a simple design concept that pursued high basic performance as a close combat Mobile Suit, and was a unit that foreshadowed the future of later 4th generation Mobile Suits, which would practically evolve, in dinosaur-like fashion, to become more multi-functional. Those involved in the project described it essentially as a Gundam-style version of The-O.
After Scirocco's death, and in the face of the ominous movements of Project Walpurgis, Tonio Mannheim fled the Jupitris and provided Anaheim Electronics with the blueprints for the Over.on and its Grimoire System in exchange for protection. Anaheim attempted to recreate it, out of technical curiosity, but the project was cancelled prior to a second unit's completion, though the development team rushed to complete it in secret anyway. In order to protect the pilot they designed this full armor custom, the "Full Armor Over.on," with increased firepower, armor and improved survivability, based on the second unit and the schematics and parts of a FA Hyaku Shiki Kai that the development staff went through effort to procure, plainly showing just how rushed its completion was.
